Holden Vintage & Classic are proud to support Just A Drop; a remarkable international development charity dedicated to bringing clean water to areas across Africa in need.

Not often connected with water drinking, Jeremy Holden looks forward to visiting a few wells along the 6700km rally route through Africa in October 2018 as part of RallyRound’s Rally Africa. Over the last 6 months, himself and a number of Holden Morgan team have been restoring ‘Sol’, a heavily rusted and run-down 1955 Morgan +4 (so named because of its resting place for the past 40 years – The Solway Firth) which was purchased somewhat spontaneously on eBay by Jeremy and collected from Scotland shortly after.

Upon assessing the sad looking car in the Holden workshop (which by this point had disintegrated further following the long journey), it was decided that even though it was in a rather sorry state, it was complete enough to hold promise for a full restoration over the coming year. And Rally Africa became the target! While the restoration is still very much underway and the car currently disassembled for a powder coating, there remains sufficient time to complete the project and ship the car to Tanzania in September where it’ll commence its 6700km journey to Cape Town via Malawi, Zambia and Botswana. Jeremy Holden said, “We are thrilled to not only take part in Rally Africa following ‘Sol’s’ hopeful completion, but also that we can support Just A Drop with such an important cause and are very much looking forward to the adventure”.

]]>On 26th May, more than 100 Morgan enthusiasts gathered at the brand new premises of Holden-Morgan to celebrate its launch.

Holden Vintage & Classic and Morgan Motors have enjoyed a long-lasting relationship that’s spun 4 decades, starting in the 1970s when Jeremy Holden and his father met with Peter Morgan to discuss a bumper that Holden had produced. Following this, a close business relationship ensued; and with the Morgan factory being only a short drive from the Holden premises in the historic motoring town of Bromyard, it was completely fitting that the two companies should eventually join forces.

…And join forces they did! In April 2017, HoldenMorgan was born, and the launch proved only too well how much love there is still for the Morgan car throughout Bromyard and beyond.

The event was opened by Bromyard town crier Peder Nielsen at 3pm on a hot and sunny afternoon. The Holden car park was lined with shiny Morgans and in the showroom, the prosecco was flowing. Guests also enjoyed refreshingly cold bottles of Holden’s very own Plus 8 beer, created especially for the occasion.

Following the arrival of the guests, Jeremy Holden, owner of HoldenMorgan, Dennis De Roos, Commercial Director and Katie Turner, General Manager, delivered a number of informative speeches about the history of the Holden Morgan relationship and exciting ventures ahead, before guests were able to roam the premises and enjoy the atmosphere.
Also in attendance was Councillor Fred Clark (the Mayor of Bromyard), Morgan’s purchasing director Gregor Dixon-Smith, and a number of tour guides from the Morgan factory – as well as Granville and Christine Orange, Holden Morgans very first customers who both became the proud owners of a MOG 3W!

Jeremy Holden said, “We are thrilled with the turnout at the launch of HoldenMorgan and the day couldn’t have gone any better. It was wonderful seeing so many Morgan enthusiasts together in one place, especially on such a beautiful sunny day. Even a number of unsuspecting visitors who turned up to the Holden Vintage & Classic shop for some engine oil ended up joining in with the occasion, leaving with a Holden Plus 8 beer in hand!

We have much to look forward to, and I’d like to thank the team at HoldenMorgan, as well as everyone who attended, for making the occasion a memorable one.
